Recommendations for Stacking
Modules can be stacked ONLY when empty and are not designed to be stacked on each other when
filled. Stacked empty modules can be no more than three high as seen in Figure 15 (or on pg. 49).
Designed into the top surface of each module are stacking lugs which fit into recessed formed sections
on the bottom surface of each module as seen in Figure 15. These stacking lugs interlock the modules
preventing the wall from shifting during transport or storage. The stacking lugs should be used in
conjunction with straps to securely hold the entire stacked pieces together. For additional support, a
long T
- pin can be inserted into the knuckles to secure the modules as seen in Figure 15 (or on pg. 49).
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN HANDLING
THE SLED END TREATMENT MODULES
Do not drive with two (2) or more filled modules on a
forklift. If maneuvering filled modules is necessary using
a forklift, only move filled modules one (1) at a time. If
the modules are empty, a maximum of three (3) stacked
modules may be moved using a forklift. NEVER STACK
MODULES WHEN FILLED. And most importantly, do
not stand underneath or in front of the forklift when
handling the modules with a forklift as modules may
fall, see Figure 16.
